Decorating beeswax narrow in 18 colours – Stockmar

This delightful set of non-toxic high-quality Stockmar extra thin and pliable narrow decorating beeswax sheets in 18 colours is a typical Waldorf art supply and has a high pedagogical and artistic quality. Decorating beeswax is an ideal material to create fun shapes with which to decorate candles boxes, picture frames and much more into small and personalised works of art! The pleasant fragrance of the sheets and their perfectly clean handling appeal to the senses of the child.

Containing a blend of clay treated microcrystalline wax, plant resins and colour pigments, Stockmar decorating wax is a vegan friendly option for decorating and modelling. Made with pure all-natural beeswax as a binding agent in vibrant and luminous colours, the Stockmar decorating beeswax becomes pliable after being warmed in the hands and it will not crumble or dry out. The sheets can be kneaded or cut into different shapes or used in the traditional Waldorf way of wrapping around beeswax or paraffin candles. When used as a candle decoration the wax burns safely when lit with the candle.

The beeswax sheets also stick on many other surfaces such as wood and glass. Figures created with the beeswax will harden and keep its shape but can be warmed and reformed as required. Even after hardening the luminosity and fine shine of the colours remain.

Children achieve experiencing art through all the senses with the decorating beeswax as scent, colour and consistency work together when moulding. The Stockmar decorating beeswax meets the highest educational, aesthetic and artistic demands and promise years of pure crafting pleasure for children and adults alike.

This set includes 18 sheets each measuring approximately 200 x 40 x 0.9mm in the following colours from the Stockmar range:

01 carmine red | 02 vermilion | 03 orange | 04 golden yellow | 05 lemon yellow | 06 yellow green | 07 green | 09 blue | 10 light blue | 11 blue violet | 12 red violet | 13 rust | 14 yellow brown | 15 black | 16 white | 24 pink | 25 gold | 26 silver.
